SAP Business Warehouse: Name or password is incorrect (repeat logon)

Hi,

I tried refreshing my query but got the error: SAP Business Warehouse: Name or password is incorrect (repeat logon)

 

I don't remember having to put in a username or password when I connected the query, however, I did recently change my SAP password and have not refreshed the query since.

 

Any way to solve this?

>> I did recently change my SAP password and have not refreshed the query since

If you have changed the password of SAP, we can edit the Credential of SAP in PowerBI.

If it is PowerBI desktop, please refer to the following steps:

1. Click “Edit Queries” drop-down menu, click “Data Source settings”

2. Select the data source, click “Edit Permissions…”

3. Edit the Credential.

For On-premise gateway, please go to PowerBI Service:

1. click “Manage Gateways” like below:

2. Select the dataset, then change the credential:

For On-premise gateway (personal mode), go to the dataset setting, in Data source credential, change it.
